Coronetto a l’uovo. An essential writing tool

Last day on Secret Project 2, which you’ll see very soon

(2) Despite the fact that Egypt had invaded Sudan in the 1870s the Abyssinian Empire successfully retrieved several garrisons and fought several successful battles with the Mahdi’s forces. A few years later, when England betrayed Abyssinia to Italy, there were widespread protests in England

Abyssinian (Ethiopian) warrior. During #blackhistorymonth I like to post little known bits of African history. So here goes with one of my favourites; in 1884, as the Mahdi swept all before him in the Anglo-Egyptian Sudan, England asked Ethiopia to save the Egyptian garrisons in South Sudan.(1)

BREAKING HEL!!

It’s a great day for writing. 3000 words on ‘The Alien’s War’ and another 2000 on a secret project 😀

Fun with Marozzo sword alone! It’s low guards Sunday!

Your very welcome!

Swag from our signing event (@Sebastiendecastell was the star)

We’re live tomorrow at Bay and Bloor for an afternoon of… well… swords and spells. I’m going to read from an unpublished fantasy novel, and goodness only knows what Sebastien will do. Turn me into a frog?

Bless you! Thanks for a great review!

I’m going to go out on a limb and say 2 more

Page proofs for ‘Captain of Venice’ the penultimate William Gold adventure.

We’re not that small a market. Our publishers are mostly subsidiaries and are hidebound and greedy. There’s definitely room here for a new small publisher like Broken Binding in the UK to shake things up. Perhaps someone who could publish in French and English.

As I’m Canadian I feel this too

British cover!

It’s North America launch day! Time to read science fiction!

Snow

Thanks for the kind words! May I just mention that there will be at least 4 books in the main Arcana series as well as several stories and a novella (in @grimdarkmagazine.bsky.social )

If you live in North America these will all come out this year! And I’m writing book 4 ‘The Alien’s War’ right now. I love these covers and hope you do, too!

@bengalley.bsky.social writes brilliant epic fantasy
@slashnburnett.bsky.social writes mostly sci-fi but has a smart unique voice and great characters

@decastell.bsky.social writes swashbuckling fantasy with brilliant characters and more than a touch of humour
@clclark.bsky.social writes epic anti-colonial fantasy with more than a touch of romance

Snow everywhere. Also tyranny

Sometimes to write a scene and make it pop, you need to write a poem. Or at least that’s how I felt today!

Attack/parry/riposte in Marozzo. I’m going back to my roots and teaching with line drills as we explore each of the guards and their attacks and parries—as Marozzo recommended

Yep. Apologies; the report met my assumption and I leapt before I researched

I have to note that this report seems to exaggerate the facts

Ukraine Ran Sting on U.S. Intel to Catch Russia Leaks A French ex-intelligence operative claims it proves that Washington shared strategic information with Russia

French news is running a story that Ukraine fed US Intel a false war plan and watched it go straight to Russia.

It’s 1867, and this woodblock print depicts a battalion of Bakufu infantry on parade in Japan. Print by Yoshifuji. Yes, this is the sort of thing that fascinates me.
